I just finished all of the baseball pictures for the county's Little League!!!! I just pressed "order" on a huge order of prints, so all I have to do now is sort them and hand them out! I am so excited to be done with them! I took over 900 pictures last week, and hopefully we can hand them out next weekend.

So why is this blog-worthy, well for a couple of reasons, 1. I have never been paid to take pictures before and to take them at this volume was a huge achievement for me and a huge boost in my self esteem too! 2. Now I can scrap scrap and scrap as much as the 6 kiddos at my house all day everyday will let me.

There was a contest on the Circle blog to show your craft space, well, I scrap at the kitchen table, and I have a buffet table that sits behind me with my Imagine and my E2, so here it is, in all its glory.

See how desperate I am to win...what a horrible picture, but oh well! I hate being on this side of the camera!

My son turns 7 today so I had to make him a birthday card and decided it was time to scrap his party from last year too! I will start with the layout. I usually try to add the cards or at least the invitation to my layouts for parties and such. For some reason I couldn't find the cards, but I did add the invitation and I used the thank-you note to journal on, then tucked them both behind the pictures.

Here is the double page layout

Here is a close up of the left side, and the cards behind the pictures

The birthday cake cut is from Birthday Bash and the puppy with the balloon is from Paper Pups

Sorry for the glare, I didn't notice it until it was loaded. Here is the right side

I finally got to use Four Legged Friends, both of these puppies are from that cartridge, the balloons are from the Celebrations cartridge and the 6 is from Hello Kitty Font.

The orange paper is from a large stack I got at Sam's forever ago, the green and other printed paper are from DCWV Celebrate Stack (super cute!!)

Here is a close up of one of the puppies, just because l like him. The bag is cut from Birthday Bash also.

I used the scraps of the paper to make his birthday card for this year.

I used Robotz for the frog guy and Blast off Imagine Cartridge for the 7 and for the inside of the card.

This is the mother's Day card I made for my mom. It is pretty simple, but I made it out of colors that she loves and that match her sewing room. I was running out of time, so I had to do something simple!

The solid colors are all core'dinations and the print paper is from DCWV the Linen Stack. I inked the edges of the printed paper and sanded the core'dinations paper.
